T = measurable trace amount, interpret with caution
< => , approximate result
MDL = method detection limit
NOTE: LSB data for some tests was reported as wet weight. Results in this table are converted to dry weight using % solids.
NOTE: LSB data for microbiology tests was reported as cfu/100g. Results converted to cfu/g to compare with U.S. EPA guidelines
* U.S. EPA Class A fecal coliform guideline for animal food producing, horticulture, landfill, and animal grazing, crop harvesting, no waiting period restriction = < 1000 cfu/g, Class B guideline = 2,000,000 cfu/g
** These are Typical Range values for Ontario soils but are not included in Table F, as these non-hazardous elements are high in soils naturally. Note that the value given for Ca and Mg could be much higher in soils derived from limestone.
